life lessons from the east coast
until i came out to massachusetts, i had no idea that so many people were still religious.
i had never even heard of ash wednesday until i got to college. i feel like portland is just a void of most religious activity. i only had a couple friends growing up whose families went to church and none, if any friends who actually believed in god.

douchebag part 2
hella fireworks across the pond in my apartment complex. i forgot that the Super Bowl is on sunday, i live in massachusetts, there will be massive riots on campus after the game (no matter what the outcome) and i guess i have to resign myself to the fact that this weekend will be a massive. shit. show.
going to be that asshole that calls in noise complaints on my neighbors for shaking my walls with ridic loud dub step all night.
whatevs. i don’t live in the dorms anymore, i’m paying rent to NOT live in the dorms, therefore i’m entitled to be a douchebag.

i have good feelings about this semester
i’m done with my major and my minor
all my classes are ones that i chose because i wanted to take them - none of them were required
i’m working 1/3 of the hours that i was working last semester, which is going to give me less money but also a lot more sanity and free time
i’m going to be writing a lot more for the daily collegian at umass so i can build up my portfolio again
...
i just want to eat all the kale in the world.
